are these silkies worth showing

[michellemire]

My lil cousion just asked if she can show some of My silkies at the show comming up since she going with some of her chickens already what do y'all think of these 2 hens there 9 mths old

The competition is stiff. Birds taken to exhibitions are not from stock that is hatchery based or procured from stock bred haphazardly in backyards by propagators. Birds at the show will have been bred from exhibition stock and carefully selected for this hobby.

The difference, seen in person with your own eyes, is rather astounding.

I bought them from a breeder

Did that breeder show this line of birds? If so, what were the results of this person's exhibitions?
